2. SEARCH ENGINES
Yahoo! - Science: Astronomy : This is a good place to start any search. Yahoo will automatically give you an option to transfer your query into Altavista.com , another excellent search engine. There are several other good search engines. I also recommend Google.com and Hotbot.com As you will soon discover, the problem with all these search engines is that they will find a huge number of sites with irrelevant junk as well as the few sites that contain really valuable information. I can suggest two strategies to find the good sites:
  • When you first use one of these search engines, take an extra few minutes to read the tips about search strategies (such as using quotation marks, "+", "and", "or", and "not" different search engines have different ways of restricting searches). That will save you a lot of time in the long run. For example, using the "not" function with the word "sex" will remove a vast number of offensive sites from most searches. Also, if you do find a site with useful information, look for key words in that site that you can use with the "and" function to restrict further searches. Even so, each search engine may return far more sites than you will want to look at. Different search engines have different criteria for placing sites near the top of the list. It is usually more efficient to start by looking at the top 5 or 10 sites from each different search engine than it is to look at dozens of sites from a single search engine.

Click here for the Meeting agenda Astronomy projects in the AMPATH service area: GEMINI: The Gemini Project has just connected its two telescopes in Mauna Kea (Hawaii) and Cerro Pachon (Chile) via Internet2. The Gemini Project is an international partnership with two 8.1-meter telescopes (each telescope has a main mirror over 26 feet across.) One telescope is located on Hawaii's Mauna Kea, and the other on Chile's Cerro Pachón. The name Gemini comes from the mythological twins, whose stars will be visible to both telescopes. See http://www.gemini.edu for more information. ESO: Other important optical telescopes facilities are Cerro Tololo (Interamerican Observatory) and Las Campanas. Also the two ESO (European Southern Observatory) facilites La Silla and Paranal. These are all candidates for future high-speed network access. The European Southern Observatory is an intergovernmental, European organization for astronomical research. It has ten member countries. ESO operates astronomical observatories in Chile and has its headquarters in Garching, near Munich, Germany. See

    The location of the MPIfR in the same building as the astronomical institutes of the University of Bonn encourages joint research activities and provides easy and immediate access for students at the MPIfR to the large number of astronomical courses and seminars held at the university. This has over the years made this location an attractive choice for astronomy students. Research fields The 100-m telescope is capable for radio observations in different observing modes, like

Compared to FY 2000, this budget item is up 73 percent. In response to recent discoveries that strongly suggest the presence of water on Mars, a series of Mars Exploration Rovers would grow quickly under the budget proposal. is proposed to receive an increase of 5.1 percent to a level of $156.3 million for FY 2002, but this does not represent an overall increase for astronomy funding at the agency (see Table II-7 ). The transfer of funding for the fifth year of Design and Development of the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) from the Major Research Equipment account to AST artificially inflates the proposed increase.

    Astronomy in the FY 2003 Budget Kevin B. Marvel, American Astronomical Society Highlights The National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Office of Space Science (OSS) would cancel two outer planet missions that were funded in the final FY 2002 budget, a mission to Jupiter's moon Europa and a congressionally mandated mission to Pluto . A new planetary exploration program modeled on the successful Discovery program would use peer review to select large planetary exploration missions that would be cost capped at $650 million in FY 2003 dollars. The program would be funded initially at a level of $15 million in FY 2003. The National Science Foundation's (NSF) division of Astronomical Sciences (AST) budget is proposed to decrease by about 3 percent from a level of just under $165.9 million to $161.3 million. This will likely delay the implementation of ground-based astronomy and astrophysics decadal survey projects (see last bullet item) and decrease the amount of funding available for research grants. NASA would initiate a new research program in cooperation with the Department of Energy called the Nuclear Systems Initiative. This program would expand current nuclear-electric power-generation systems and develop new nuclear-electric propulsion technologies to enable expanded exploration missions and decrease travel times to solar system mission targets. The program would be funded at a level of $46.5 million for nuclear-electric propulsion and $79 million for the nuclear-electric propulsion technologies.

The Library continued to evolve its information system and in April 2001 introduced the YDL (Yonsei Integrated Digital Library), a digital library system. YDL is composed of "YOURS PLUS", a new information retrieval system based on the library automation system, and "PLATON" (Pioneer Library for Academic Activities On Network), a lecture and research support information system. The Central Library possesses about 1.5 million volumes, including important Korean classics, government documents and archives, and selected foreign archives and materials. The Library also houses around 12,000 journals. In recent years, the Main Library has increased the portion of digitized special collections such as scholarly Web documents and image databases. Currently, it has over 100,000 image files. In addition, it has an extensive CD-ROM collection, electronic journals and online databases which enables the faculty students, and staff to link up with information centers in Korea and throughout the world.

    ASIAA is a research institute founded in 1993 at Taipei, Taiwan, to study the universe and its constituents observationally and theoretically. ASIAA's initial emphasis is on radio astronomy. ASIAA has joined the Berkeley-Illinois-Maryland millimeter Array (BIMA) as a 10% partner sinice 1994. ASIAA is adding two elements to Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory's Sub-Mn-Array (SMA) (the SMART project) to become a 15% partner of this frontier facility which is to be completed before the year 2000.

    AIPS++ is a software package which will calibrate and image (primarily) radio astronomical data. It is being written in an object-oriented style using the C++ language. AIPS++ is being developed by an international consortium. AIPS++ is not yet of interest to users, although there are some email reflectors you may wish to join for information. A beta library release is available via anonymous ftp. This may be of interest to C++ software developers.
    Arecibo Observatory - National Astronomy and Ionosphere Center ( NAIC ) Arizona Radio Observatory ( ARO )
    The ARO owns and operates two radio telescopes in southern Arizona: The former NRAO 12 Meter (KP12m) Telescope located 50 miles southwest of Tucson on Kitt Peak and the Heinrich Hertz Submillimeter Telescope (HHSMT) located on Mt. Graham near Safford, Arizona. Combined, the two telescopes routinely cover the entire millimeter and submillimeter windows from about 4.6 mm to about 0.6 mm, and at the HHSMT observations can be made all the way to 0.3 mm with PI instruments. The telescopes are operated around-the-clock for about 9 to 10 months per year for a combined 10,000 hours per observing season (about 1500 hours are dedicated to sub-mm wavelengths at the HHSMT). The ARO offices are centrally located in the Steward Observatory building on the campus of the University of Arizona in Tucson Arizona.
